Suoi Mo Festival

Along the stream, trees hang their shadows gently reflecting on the clear water. There are three temples — the Upper Temple, the Middle Temple, and the Lower Temple — built during the Lê Dynasty (16th–17th century), dedicated to Princess Quế Mỵ Nương, daughter of King Hùng Định Vương. She was honored as the Supreme Mountain Holy Mother for her role in reclaiming and developing this land. Every year, to commemorate her merits, the local people hold the Suối Mỡ Temple Festival on the 30th of March and the 1st of April in the lunar calendar.

On the main festival day, April 1st, besides the lively and bustling procession, at the Lower Temple, villagers organize various traditional games and ethnic sports such as wrestling, Chinese chess, swinging, cockfighting, archery, ethnic martial arts, badminton, football, volleyball, and chess. Among these, archery and ethnic martial arts are performed by local natives. At night, there is a traditional spiritual singing performance (hát chầu văn), making the festival lively and vibrant throughout the night.

The Suối Mỡ Festival is a famous festival in Lục Nam, attracting a large number of visitors from both inside and outside the province to come and pay homage and participate in the festivities.
